Question

derive Copernicus method with figure​

Answer 1

Answer:

The elongation angle θ is measured from the Earth as the angle between Venus and the Sun. Figure 1 – The geometry (greatest elongation) of inferior planet distances from the Sun. Figure 2 shows this configuration as seen from a top-down view of the Solar System in Starry Night using the new Copernican Method lines.

Answer 2

Answer:

Copernicus Method: – This method is basically used to find the distance between those planets which are near to sun rather than that of earth. Before applying this condition we have to suppose that the orbits in which the planets are moving are circular.
